Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Services

At Florence Neurosurgery and Spine Center we provide an individualized plan of care that strives to reduce pain and restore function, while focusing on recovery and rehabilitation. We emphasize patient education and injury prevention. By coordinating directly with our neurosurgeons and spine care specialists, we help our patients find a more functional way of life.

Evaluation and Treatment

Our licensed physical therapy team works closely with the physicians of Florence Neurosurgery and Spine Center to coordinate care and maximize recovery. FNS Physical therapy also accepts outside referrals from other local physicians and providers.

Establishing Plan of Care

At your first physical therapy appointment an individualized evaluation is performed by the physical therapist to establish plan of care and determine which activities are painful or difficult for the patient. The therapist will discuss with the patient what they would like to be able to accomplish while participating in therapy. Patients are also educated at follow up visits on therapeutic exercises to work on strengthening and flexibility.

Follow up treatments

Follow up visits/treatments will be performed by licensed physical therapist or physical therapist assistants. Follow up visits will work on reaching patient's goals, improving patients strength and mobility, as well as aiding in decreasing patient's pain. One of the main goals of physical therapy is to work toward the patient being able to independently perform a home exercise program and maintain the current progress that was obtained while under formal physical therapy treatment.

Yoga for Low Back Pain

A growing body of scientific literature suggests that mind–body exercise therapies may be helpful tools in managing patients with low back pain. As a part of a multidisciplinary approach to the treatment of chronic low back pain, the Florence Neurosurgery and Spine Center offers supervised Yoga classes by certified instructors.
